Can anybody tell me what the category Borderline H is all about, 'cause I can't find a definition or something anywhere on the i-net & I'm sure it doesn't have anything to do with borderline disorder (you know, the illness)...
Tnx 🙂

It only takes one bullet

Borderline H means it's almost, but not quite, hentai. Hentai is kind of like manga porn.

"If you think being eaten by a carnivorous tree is something that only happens to someone else, then think again."
--Shades of Grey, by Jasper Fforde

Borderline H might be from nudity to depiction of sexual acts but there is no direct representation of the sexual organs.

Try futari ecchi and you'll se the diference

H manga is hentai, i.e graphically drawn sex (porn)
Borderline H basically means borderline hentai - sex without detail on the genital areas. It's nowhere near as graphically drawn as hentai.

borderline h has following definitions:
a) the work contains lots of sex, but not as the main theme (like believers)
b) the work is about sex-related themes, but not about sex itself (like nana to kaoru)
c) the work does mention sex and sex realted things very often, it´s the main theme of the manga, but the act itself never happans or is never shown (like b gata h kei)
this definitions are made of my own experience so i don´t know if they are exactly right

Well..i guess.....u cud just say...that...

Borderline H = SOFT-CORE porn (hentai)........more or less...

Something like Aki Sora (though this series can be arguable), where one of, if not the, main focus is sex in not-as-graphic detail.

You get glowing penises and vaginas in borderline H.

You get glowing penises and vaginas in borderline H.

.... okay
well, thanks everyone! You gave me some very clear and some very.. vague explanations, but I can make a picture now of what Borderline H is all about and... that maybe for a mostly-shoujoreader it's best to avoid this category 😛

It only takes one bullet

Hehe, 'Borderline H' = smut/echhi on steroids 😛 ... maybe sometimes even soft porn.

Funny that there even is a separate category for this, you'd think a combination of adult and ecchi would be sufficient.

If you've read shoujo then you've probably read at least one smut manga. Borderline-H is like smut, except the sex scenes don't end at the beginning or they're done in a hentai style rather than "shoujo-ish".

think "smut for boys"

Feed your head.

Some pretty good definitions here. Question's been answered, so I'll lock this.
